This absolutely isn't going to help *you* at all, but I have exim setup
by Debian automagically, (eximconfig), and it quite happily rewrites my
email address (or, at least, it appears to from here!). You generally
need to setup your mail system to have you as a 'trusted user' -
obviously, mailers don't let *any* user rewrite their headers... maybe
you need to have a look at that? You might be able to mess with some
rewrite rules to do the job for you.


Cheers,


Alex.
